Benzoyl urea derivatives that are alpha helical peptides mimetics that mimic BH3-only proteins, compositions containing them, their conjugation to cell-targeting-moieties, and their use in the regulation of cell death are disclosed. The benzoyl urea derivatives are capable of binding to and neutralizing pro-survival Bcl-2 proteins. Use of benzoyl urea derivatives in the treatment and/or prophylaxis of diseases or conditions associated with deregulation of cell death are also described.
The conformationally restricted, spatially defined macrocyclic ring system of formula (I) is constituted by three distinct molecular parts: Template A, conformation Modulator B and Bridge C. Macrocycles described by this ring system I are readily manufactured by parallel synthesis or combinatorial chemistry in solution or on solid phase. They are designed to interact with a variety of specific biological target classes, examples being agonistic or antagonistic activity on G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs), inhibitory activity on enzymes or antimicrobial activity. In particular, these macrocycles show inhibitory activity on endothelin converting enzyme of subtype 1 (ECE-1) and/or the cysteine protease cathepsin S (CatS), and/or act as antagonists of the oxytocin (OT) receptor, thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) receptor and/or leukotriene B4 (LTB4) receptor, and/or as agonists of the bombesin 3 (BB3) receptor, and/or show antimicrobial activity against at least one bacterial strain. Thus they are showing great potential as medicaments for a variety of diseases.
Disclosed herein are methods, compositions, probes, assays and kits for identifying a lipid binding protein as a drug binding target. Also disclosed herein are methods, compositions, and probes for mapping a ligand binding site on a lipid binding protein, identification of lipid binding proteins, generating drug-lipid binding protein profiles, high throughput drug screening, and identification of drugs as potential lipid binding protein ligands.
